The recent leadership race for the next Premier of British Columbia has the democratic process of the NDP under scrutiny again. Host Jessa McLean and Producer Santiago Helou Quintero go over just what happened with the BCNDP and the disqualification of Anjali Appadurai. Together they examine the claims against the grassroots campaign that was set to challenge the acclamation of David Eby for the next leader of the BCNDP, as well as the larger issues it raises in the movement to get eco-socialism into electoral politics. The tensions between Labour and environmentalists over old growth logging in the province seems to have struck quite a nerve with NDP members across Canada. Where do eco-socialists now turn? What is next for the BCNDP? And what does this all mean for the electoral Left in Canadian Politics?
